Win XP

OK so i am sitting in fron of my computer and right next to me is a labtop that belongs to my step dad and my sister. The labtop is running xp and it is password protected and this box is just stitting in front of me all day and nobody in my family uses it. This thing is brand new and i would sure like to take a look at it. Also it is running on the same wireless internet as my computer. If anybody can give me any type of help with my problem please let me know.

Some how i knew you guys/girls would respone to this in the manner that you did but nobody use's this box and it just sits here so privacy is not an issue. But i do understand your point and how am i ever going to learn if i dont ask.

You knew people would react that way so you were just testing the waters and hoping for a bite.
If it's really your families computer just ask for the pass or for a login like you were told if it's not yours and you were just trying to figure out how to get in someone else's computer use google.

Doesn't matter. If it's their machine, then it's their property. It's still a matter of "Trespass". I agree with some of the other sentiments here: why not just ask for an account to be put on it so you can use it?

Ah well I tried, maybe i was testing the waters a little bit. Guess I gotta learn the hard way. Back to the tutorials. HAHA It really was my step dads labtop I just thought i could try to get some Hands on experince I read alot but i just dont know where to go next.
